Hey earth muffins! Valentine’s Day is only a few days away… Time to think about spreading some love! While the holiday is usually meant for celebrating your relationship(s), it can also be about giving a little extra love to the planet and the organizations that make our communities better. In today’s post, I will share the best nonprofits to support on February 14th. This support can be monetary, time commitments, or even just spreading their message. Let’s jump right into it!
Charities to Support This Valentine’s Day:
Very fitting with the holiday, check out The Valentine Project. This nonprofit allows you to adopt someone as a “Valentine” or to send Kindness cards (aka valentines) to people with major illnesses. Last year I used up a bunch of old craft supplies to make a ton of valentines for sick children in a local hospital; it is such a rewarding way to spread a little bit of extra love to those who need it.
If you are planning on purchasing any flowers this holiday, think about supporting ReVased. This organization has a whole floral directory of places to donate your flowers after any event (think wedding, parties, etc.). This is amazing because you get to brighten someone’s day with a beautiful bouquet AND it keeps those flowers out of the landfill for a little longer.
Another nonprofit to support is the Valentines for Veterans campaign. This is such an easy way to spread some love to service members and veterans – just make sure to send $1 per card with your valentines to cover the cost of mailing/delivery. Another great way to put a smile on someone’s face this February! 😍
Lastly, don’t forget to spread a little love to Mother Earth herself this Valentine’s Day! If you are thinking about donating money or time, check out your local eco-friendly organizations. Get involved and join others in your community who care about the planet! Your impact can be even greater when coming together with others.
In conclusion, Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to spread a little extra love in your communities. It doesn’t just have to be about treating your partner (or yourself). There are plenty of Valentine themed campaigns to support; but, you can also just help out your favorite environmental charities as well. What are you favorite nonprofits to support? Comment below and let me know how you’ll be spreading the love this Valentine’s Day!
